The vulnerability is clearly shown in the patch files where two functions were modified to remove direct eval() calls on user-provided input. Both functions process POST request parameters ('high_availability' and 'query_commited') that were previously passed to eval() without proper validation. The patch replaces these dangerous eval() calls with safer string comparison operations. These are the exact functions that would appear in a runtime profiler when the vulnerability is being exploited, as they directly process the malicious input before the eval() call (in vulnerable versions). The confidence is high because the patch explicitly shows the removal of eval() calls on user-controlled input in both cases.
